Dynamics of the AU-EU Approaches for Rural transformation – A reflection on the report “An Africa-Europe Agenda for Rural Transformation”

This is the title of the first educational webinar organized by LEAP4FNSSA project that will be held on Tuesday 1st of October 2019 (15:00 CEST to 16:00 CEST).

The webinar will tackle the policy making segment of the FNSSA sectors by shedding the light on the recently released report of the Task Force Rural Africa “An Africa-Europe Agenda for Rural Transformation”. The Report stresses the importance of good policy as the key to developing the agri-food sector and rural areas, and here Europe and Africa can draw on their rich capacities and experience. It also recommends to directly involve farmers, cooperatives, civil society, and the private sector in policymaking and in their own futures.
This webinar will also inform about the outcomes of the June 2019 meeting of ministers of agriculture from Europe and Africa who discussed this report.

Two topics were chosen to reflect both EU and AU perspectives, which are: “The changing EU Africa Political Relationship” and “Mainstreaming Policies into actions and Programmes.”

The webinar is free of charge, with registration required; its length will be approximately one hour and the language will be English.Register now!

The webinar is part of a series of webinars which aim at covering the main pillars of the FNSSA sectors which are: Policies and Institutional aspects, Social Participation, Economic Landscapes and Integrative Sustainable Network.
